A Little Bit About Me...

While at Springfield College I started tutoring some of my fellow students in the areas of math and science for a little extra cash. I have always wanted to mimic the kind of tutoring I received as a struggling math student in middle school. I was never the best at math until I started to receive tutoring and everything started to click. The extra help I got in math was essential to my studies at the university level and all my previous coursework leading up. I want to be that tutor who helped everything click.
When I tutor I try and understand where they are having trouble and try to find the best way of explaining in a way that is beneficial to the student.

I am Naga Durga from Hyderabad city which is a cosmopolitan city(amalgam of all religions,languages,people) in India(unity in diversity).Since childhood i always wanted to set myself aside from the crowd in all the activities. So after my graduation I worked for social organizations like "Save the children" and "Helpage India".I gave my precious time and voluteer service for these NGOs as i believed that today's children are tomorrow's future generation helping in building the nation and if not guided they may turn into thiefs(behind bars) or anti-social elements with destructive minds.And Hyderabad being a metro city is very prone to child trafficking and child labour.And I am glad that I got an opportunity to serve those abandoned old parents who have put there complete heart and soul in building their children's career.The satisfaction which I got from this service made me feel uni ... read more

I have been teaching for more than fifteen years at the collegiate level and I have taught one year at the high school level. I also tutor students when I find students in need of extra assistance. I have worked in the insurance field for about fourteen years and worked in competitive environments in an actuarial department. I have also ran a small business for more than twelve years. I have a diverse number of experiences so that I can make mathematics practical and live for the student.
I am more of a hands on type of person and ask questions so that the student can explore and learn on their own. This will help them to be able to really learn the materials. I also cater my tutoring to the students involved.

I am looking forward to working with and helping you! :)

I have a strong passion to educate young minds and help them blossom into well-rounded, responsible, and successful individuals as well as life-long learners. I have had wonderful opportunities to teach diverse groups of students including those with learning disabilities, those who performed at grade level, and those who were gifted/exceptional. Therefore, I have become proficient at differentiating instruction and designing creative and stimulating lesson plans, which accommodate multiple intelligences, bring a hands-on approach to learning, and keep students interested and focused. My greatest strengths include being conscientious and inspiring and motivating students. I actively engage their eager minds by implementing "best practice" in my instructional approach and incorporating a variety of manipulatives, enjoyable activities, and cooperative learning projects. In addition, I tail ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

The focus is always on the student's learning - everything I do I want the student to be able to learn from. I believe every student learns differently and therefore must be taught in a unique way. I believe every student has the ability to learn and succeed and that knowledge is the gateway to a better life.
As a pre-service teacher, I am constantly preparing to become an excellent educator. My degree is in Elementary Education with an emphasis on Children's Studies and Teaching English as a Second Language (TESOL). I have endorsements in language arts, science, and social sciences. Through clinical placements I have observed, tutored, and taught in two elementary classrooms. I have also tutored in math, reading, and ESL and I have experience working with children with special needs. My experiences have be rewarding and have shown me that learning can commence any place, at any ti ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I think that children are the most vital asset to our society. We must pass on all the knowledge that we possibly can, and I have decided to dedicate my life to this endeavor. I believe that all students have the ability to learn. I believe that each student learns in his or her own way. Whether it be a visual, auditory, or kinethetic learner, I am prepared to alter my teaching style to assist my students in any way possible. I will strive to help all the students that I come into contact with, and I know that I will learn a lot from these students as well.
I am a graduate of Western Illinois University, and I am excited to be starting my teaching career. I have earned a bachelor degree in Elementary Education and have received my teaching certificate for Elementary (K-9). I have been teaching in a pre-school for the past three summers while I was finishing my schooling. I have had ... read more

As a seminary student, I gained a deeper respect for the education process and a greater passion for teaching students. During my time at what is now Lincoln Christian University, I gained a respect for the written word as well as a significant knowledge and usage of the English language. For the MA degree that I completed, I gained a working knowledge of grammar and research skills due to writing research papers and a final extensive thesis. Not only have I gained experience through study, but I have taught and, at times, tutored junior and senior high students in a classroom setting.
The process of learning has always facinated me. I believe that all individuals regardless of age are able to learn something new everyday. I also understand that each individual learns in a different manner from the next. My teaching style is structured so that I try to help each student learn ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy teaching a great deal. I love children, and believe every child has the capacity to succeed. My job is not only to give children the content knowledge, but to build their self-esteem and help them realize their own potential. In my experience, students who lack self-esteem often perform poorly in school, even if they know the material. My job is to build their self image while giving them the skills they need to excel.
After graduating from college with a degree in English, I pursued a career in the corporate field. I did not find it satisfying and yearned to return to school to pursue a master's in education. I began substitute teaching in spring of 2007 and completed my student teaching in December 2007. I have been teaching English since I finished student teaching and have been a tutor at Sylvan for some time. I tutor all areas, from beginning to advanced reading and ma ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I worked for 14 years as a Project Engineer for the Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety before deciding to start a new career as a teacher of high school physics. I attended the Transition to Teaching program at Calument College in Whiting Indiana and completed my Student Teaching at Munster High School in Indiana in the fall of 2008. In the spring of 2009 I passed my Content Area exam and in June 2009 received a Teaching License from the state of Indiana.
I believe that students should be respected and challenged beyond the usual material they are expected to learn in order to demonstrate proficiency in their coursework. I believe that students learn best by first having their imaginations stimulated and then given concrete examples of the concepts with which they have been presented. Physics is a subject where both ideas and concepts can be discussed in the classroom and ca ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that each child/adult has a learning style unique to them. Finding what works and what makes learning fun, to me, are critical to success, especially to struggling learners. Positive reinforcement and encouragement are critical, as well.
My background includes teaching at the elementary level and at the adult education level, especially literacy. I spent 10 years directing an adult literacy program where I trained volunteers to be tutors and tutored myself. During that time I took an intensive training course on working with people with learning disabilities. I have worked with ESOL students, as well.

I love helping people realize that they are smarter than they think. Seeing the look on a student's face when he/she grasps a new concept is a very rewarding experience. I understand that most people want to do well, but have often encountered hurdles that don't allow them the success that they are seeking. A good tutor can help remove those hurdles and make a huge difference in the student's future success.
I had always wanted to be a teacher, but after teaching for several years I found that I enjoyed the one-on-one experience more. I have a triple major in math education, elementary education and physical education. My professional experience includes math teacher, physics teacher, accountant, business owner and financial manager.
